Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant is more than your average
Michael Jordan fan. It’s common for Bryant to walk around the team’s
Valley Ranch locker room in Jordan Brand clothing and sport numerous
different styles of the basketball legend’s shoes.

So you can imagine how excited Bryant, who often plays basketball in
his free time, was Saturday night when he finally got a chance to meet
His Airness.

The encounter occurred during a 50 birthday celebration for Jordan in Houston.

Bryant tweeted: “So excited I can’t tweet right lol….meeting Michael Jordan tonight was the best moment of my life.”

Bryant then followed by posting a photo of himself and the 6-6 legend.

Unfortunately for Bryant, 24, he was only nine when Jordan won the
last of his six championships, so most of his memories are probably of
Air Jordan playing in Washington. Good thing about MJ, it’s not
difficult to find his highlights.
